Joint List MKs walk out of PM’s Knesset speech
MKs from the Joint (Arab) List walk out of the Knesset plenum as Netanyahu makes his speech to mark the start of parliament’s winter session.
The move comes after the coalition says all of its MKs will boycott every Joint List speech in retaliation for that faction’s decision to skip Shimon Peres’s funeral on September 30.
The Joint List says the decision by the coalition was “anti-democratic, racist and dangerous.”
